A superior carrier oil at a great price. The colour varies from a very pale yellow to a more golden colour. Won't make soap without it. Also use it in my lip butters. Won't purchase it anywhere else!

Castor oil is my staple carrior oil. Its great for general skincare products from soap to body massage oils. I've recently been making lip gloss with it. It super on its own or is best mixed with other raw ingredients if you want to combine it with other theraputic benefits.

Good quality product. I was told that it makes a soap with more lather. I can confirm that. No need to use a lot into a soap recipe but it is worth the value.

Good castor oil at a great price! It doesn't smell too strong and the color isn't too dark (it's a golden oil). I use it in soap, cleansing oil, and lip balms. Awesome in shaving soaps too!

I use castor oil for making my cold process soap and liquid soap. castor oil acts as a humectant by attracting and retaining mosture to the skin. also, I added castor oil for my shampoo making. I make liquid soap for my hair. I combine coconut oil, castor oil, shea butter, hemp seed oil and jojoba oil for make my liquid hair soap and it works amazing ! good qulity and reasonable price !
